The Four Horsemen Of SQL Development

The Four Horsemen Of SQL Development
The four horsemen of SQL development: finger-cracking before joining those tables, neck-craning to decipher someone else's query, thigh-rubbing after sitting for 8 hours optimizing indexes, and the dreaded accidental CAPS LOCK when typing commands.

Our SQL: Database For The People
The MySQL logo has been brilliantly transformed into "OurSQL" with a Soviet ushanka hat on the dolphin. Because in communist database design, you don't own the tables—the tables own you!

Select All... And Watch Your DBA Cry
Oh. My. God. The DRAMA between DBAs and developers is sending me! 💀 Developer: "I'll just grab EVERYTHING with SELECT * and sort it out later!" DBA: *literally PUSHING the developer toward a cliff* "SPECIFIC COLUMNS ONLY YOU MONSTER!!!" And this, children, is why your database queries take 8 years to run. The SELECT * wildcard is basically asking the database to hand over its entire life story when all you needed was its name and phone number. Performance? Never heard of her!
